Inter wasteful, Candreva mocks it in the 90th minute: draw at Arechi
Salernitana-Inter 1-1
Simone Inzaghi’s Inter still can’t get unblocked, as they don’t go beyond a 1-1 draw at home to Salernitana in the 29th day of Serie A: Gosens’ opening goal was answered by Candreva, who mocked his former team right in the 90th minute.
The Nerazzurri, in search of a success that between the league and cups has been missing since last March 5, started off strong and took the lead through Robin Gosens in the 6th minute: after the former Atalanta man’s goal came two great chances at Lukaku’s feet, but first the Belgian’s mistake under goal and then an effective intervention by the defense prevented the hosts from worse trouble.
Lukaku again came close to doubling the score at the end of the first half, finding a resounding Ochoa in his way, while at the beginning of the second half it was Barella who came very close to 2-0, hitting the post behind the Mexican goalkeeper. The woodwork did not help Inter either in the 65th minute and it was Lukaku again, from two steps, who missed the goal by hitting the crossbar.
The double seems in the air but never comes (Lautaro wastes in the 82nd minute) and the mockery is served in the 90th minute: Candreva’s cross-shot mocks Onana and is worth the 1-1 that will not change despite the guest assault in the four minutes of the game’s recovery.
